INFORMATION WANTED

We operate
company
is the
a small manufacturing
and want to Know which
best software to Keep
track of al] aspects of our
business. There is too much out
there for us to try all of it so
we will rely on your recommend-
ations.
Also, we have a Model 33 Telex
machine running at 110 baud on a
RS-232 20 ma current loop serial
interface, with a paper tape
punch attached. The paper tape
operates our other equipment and
if an error occures, the entire
tape must be begun again. We
wrote to several manufacturers
for recommendations on how to
connect the Model 33 to the
TS1000 so that we could type
onto the video display terminal
in order to correct our errors
before having it fed into the
paper tape’ punch. We hope to
attach the paper tape punch
directly to the TS1000 if
possible. Anyone having a
solution to our problem is asked
to write to: D. K. Mason at

Commodore with the associated hardware and software. In
future we plan to sell the IBM PC or an IBM clone.
of the strong points of being a computer salesperson is
significant tax benefits. The hardware and software you
is part of your business and can be deducted. If you are
like me you find that there is always something more that
you would like to add to your system(s).
If members of your organization are interested in using your
computer awareness to help you make extra income this is the
